NFC: pn533: Fix socket deadlock
A deadlock can occur when the NFC raw socket is closed while the driver is processing a command. Following is the call graph of the affected situation: send data via raw_sock: ------------- rawsock_tx_work sock_hold => socket refcnt++ nfc_data_exchange => cb = rawsock_data_exchange_complete ops->im_transceive = pn533_transceive => arg->cb = db = rawsock_data_exchange_complete pn533_send_data_async => cb = pn533_data_exchange_complete __pn533_send_async => cmd->complete_cb = cb = pn533_data_exchange_complete if_ops->send_frame_async response: -------- pn533_recv_response queue_work(priv->wq, &priv->cmd_complete_work) pn533_wq_cmd_complete pn533_send_async_complete cmd->complete_cb() = pn533_data_exchange_complete() arg->cb() = rawsock_data_exchange_complete() sock_put => socket refcnt-- => If the corresponding socket gets closed in the meantime socket will be destructed sk_free __sk_free sk->sk_destruct = rawsock_destruct nfc_deactivate_target ops->deactivate_target = pn533_deactivate_target pn533_send_cmd_sync pn533_send_cmd_async __pn533_send_async list_add_tail(&cmd->queue,&dev->cmd_queue) => add to command list because a command is currently processed wait_for_completion => the workqueue thread waits here because it is the one processing the commands => deadlock To fix the deadlock pn533_deactivate_target is changed to issue the PN533_CMD_IN_RELEASE command in async mode. This way nothing blocks and the release command is executed after the current command. Signed-off-by: Michael Thalmeier <michael.thalmeier@hale.at> Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>
